These sessions proved extremely popular last winter and the feedback from children and parents was excellent. We will be running two blocks between November and February on Sunday mornings at the Old Chapel in Hoole, which means no standing around in the cold and rain.

The programme will introduce children to the contact game in a safe environment with qualified, DBS-checked coaches. These sessions are fantastic for newcomers to the sport as well as those who have played before as the focus will be developing good technique, building confidence and of course having fun as we prepare for the 2016 season.

Numbers will be capped so parents are asked to pay up front to guarantee places (£10 for block one and £15 for block two) and bookings are now being taken. For more details and to book places please email info@chestergladiators.com.
